smart cityProject TERA4Schools Sector School buildings, comfort indoor Test site Carelli Middle School– Forlani in Conversano (BA) Objective Raise public awareness and institutions about the need to improve the conditions of the school environment and protect the health of pupils and promote concentration and learning. Proposed action Installazione Installation in the classrooms, in the gyms and in the school offices, of a hundred sensors connected to the BEETA control unit, to monitor general electrical and electronic equipment consumption, thermal consumption, humidity levels, brightness, carbon dioxide and vibrations. Expected benefits Il 45.5% of cases the system detected higher level of CO2 (more than 1000ppm), a limit that identifies an unfavorable environmental condition for the pupils’ attention and concentration. In particular, the greatest presence of carbon dioxide has been detected in the most numerous classes and on winter days, when the window is opened rarely for the air change. The result obtained led to a proposal of a technical table, composed by regional councilors and interested people, as well as schools and companies, to extend the experimentation to reach a draft law on carbon dioxide monitorin in schools and other public spaces.
RES NOVAE
smart cityProject RES NOVAE Sector Public and private construction Test site Municipality of Bari Objective Tera has participated in innovative project for advanced and innovative solutions of energy flows management for Smart City. The project, supported by numerous partners, deal with cities problems with an organic way, starting from energy infrastructures, analysing them with a smar perspective and training sector professionals, employees in Public Administration and citizens on the tested new technologies through blended learing systems. Proposed action Installation of Tera actuator sensors and gateway to monitor energy consumption and environmental parameters in public buildings in the Bari area. The Energy Box get data from sensors to control environmental conditions and energy and thermal consumption. BEMS allows the management and the monitoring of individual buildings. Expected benefits The Energy Boxhas been upgraded with Beeta Box edge computer to improve performance in term of number and type of manageable functions, installation flexibility, user interaction, type of protocol used, direct access to the Cloud.
